The E4D system is the latest in CAD/CAM technology for the dental industry. It allows us to create beautiful porcelain crowns in just one appointment at our office, eliminating the need to wear a temporary crown for weeks.
The procedure consists of shaping your tooth as you would normally for a crown. The tooth is then scanned by a laser into the computer system. From the 3D image that is created from the scan a crown is designed by our dental team. It is then sent to an in-office mill, which cuts the crown from a block of porcelain. We are able to create a more natural look that better matches your existing teeth with this new system.
We began offering this service as of December 2011 for those patients whose restoration case can be created using the E4D.
Patients: ask us about this new technology the next time you’re in! We would be happy to show you the system.
Happy Holidays from all of us at Koenigsknecht Dentistry
2014 was an exciting year at Koenigsknecht Dentistry. We welcomed three new staff members and three new babies into our dental family! Dr. Nick and his wife Erin, had a baby girl, Faye in January. Our office coordinator Gessika had another boy, Ethan in May. And, Dr. Jonathan and his wife Jessica, welcomed a baby boy, Lincoln in October. Audrey is our newest dental assistant. She has been with us since fall of 2013 when she started as a temporary employee during our project to convert to digital charting. Audrey will be trying to fill the shoes of our dear Becky who is retiring at the end of 2014 to enjoy more time with her grand babies! Lisa is a new face (and voice) with our business team. She joined us in July. We also have a new hygienist on staff named Maggie. She is working Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Please join us in welcoming these new staff members!
